I sold all five of my stock wheels and tires (the ugly 16's) and I plan on buyinng a matching Moda 17" rim soon, but i will need a tire, but I don't need a new tire. I will buy 5 matching tires once my Dunlops wear out.


Thanks!

Thanks man...it doesn't need to be much....just enough to drive on, naturally I will pay for whatever I get, I was just hoping to wait on buying a NEW tire.

thanks anyhow. I think the one I'm looking at on Ebay should be a cheap buy. Do you want a tire for that wheel you have?

Good deal ..... not. I think this is the guy I bought two tires from and the tread depth was not as advertised ... since I don't leave feedback too often for the ones that were bad I can't recall if it was him ... he was in NJ though. I have a Pilot Sport that you can have from that auction ... enough tread for a spare about 3/32nds .... you will pay $25 shipping for each of those tires, don't bid it any higher.

Thanks man..if the auction goes over $15 I'll let it go to whoever. I appreciate your offer of the Pilot sports and I'l PM you asap if I lose this auction.

Buying used tires is a shady deal, but I don't need much of a tire for my spare.

Thanks SilverSport! I got it all mounted and balanced this morning and I made sure they didn't harm the new rim. Alls well that ends well.
